LCDR Lawrence Francis DeAngelo, USN (Retired), 84, passed away peacefully on Feb. 10, 2020.

Born on Sept. 18, 1935, a native of Crescent City, CA, where he grew up on a farm, he resided in Virginia Beach since 1972 after moving here with his wife and four children from Long Beach, California.

He was predeceased by his late wife, Maureen (Sullivan) DeAngelo, his parents, Esidoro and Winifred (Fitzpatrick) DeAngelo, and his sister, June Bebe.

He is survived by his four children, Michael and Mark of Virginia Beach, Julie Gough (husband Jack) of Wintergreen VA, and Peter (wife Jennifer) of Old Tappan NJ, and his four loving grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother James D’Angelo (wife Marsha) of Reno, Nevada.

He was a member of St. Matthew Catholic Church. He was a retired officer of the United States Navy where he served his country for 20 years. He met his wife of 50 years, the late Maureen (Sullivan) DeAngelo, of Newport, R.I. while attending officer candidate school in Newport following his graduation from St Mary’s College of Moroga, CA. He was a veteran of the Vietnam War. After retiring from the Navy, he worked for defense contractor EG&G Inc as well as Bank of America Corp for a number of years. He was a dedicated coach of his children’s youth sports teams for several years and was a former president of the Woodstock Recreation League in Virginia Beach. He was an avid California Raisin collector and had one of the foremost collections in the U.S. during the ‘80’s & ‘90’s. Most of all, he was a devoted husband and father.
